What did you get in your mocks? If you did well, then this may just be anomalous.

If you can't make sense of why your grade was so low then I'd recommend ordering photocopies of your papers from OCR - it will really help to see the kinds of errors you make in the actual exam.
Is f331 the easiest or not?
My advice would be past paper, past paper, past paper. I've been in a similar situation and past papers are the thing that I feel most helped me improve. You learn the knowledge, by looking up where you're going wrong, and then you learn how to best apply it to the questions.

Also In my sixth form.. a lot of people got all A's and B's FOR AS and they did f334 in jan 2012 and put it this way no1 got higher than a C grade. All lower.

I seen the paper and it was nasty so hopefuly the resit is beta. It does depend on the paper aswell. good luck :smile:
this paper was such a b*tch though!!!! I absolutly HATED it. i got a B for AS, and an E for this exam. going to be retaking with f335, f334 AND f332 in summer. im gunna have such a great 3 months -.-
